Default Kenwood KDC-MP228 + iPod installed

This deck matches our interior nicely... has two-tone silver face one that is
a perfect match and another shade that is gray-er. I did the install myself
except for the removal of the original unit. It was a pretty simple task with
the VW harness and swap of the yellow and red wires as has been reported
here. The new deck sounds great! I drilled a 1" hole in the ceiling of the
glove-box compartment area where the iPod cable comes out.

The UI on the Kenwood deck is weird but I'm starting to get used to it.
The sound is fantastic and the deck only costs $150. The iPod interface is
another $99. The deck can also connect to a Kenwood HD-radio module.
If I can figure out somewhere to hide it, I may be adding that at some point.

I'll try to post a picture in the next few days.

Steve
